Hello All,

I need some help in actually performing the VM provision via spacewalk.
I've got the channels setup containing the many packages from all the
different repositories. I've also got the Kickstart file completed as well.

I just can't figure out how to perform the actual provisioning of the
virtual machines.  Please help, Thanks!

You've picked the wrong architecture for your channel. The correct
architecture for i386 distros is IA-32[1]. However, the correct architecture
for 64-bit Linux distros is x86_64, NOT IA-64 (which is Itanium2). iSeries
and pSeries are IBM mainframe architectures.

Thanks,
Avi

Thank you, that was the trick.  Easy fix!!  Now to try to add machines and
push packages to them.
